While it is not certain as to what is the criteria for folks getting the beta download links, it is certain that beta invites are being sent out in batches. StarCraft Legacy also points to a new beta portal where beta testers can get information about the patches coming out and provide feedback on the game.

While you’re waiting for those invites, you might want to check out some interviews G4TV has posted with some core members of the StarCraft II team.

So are you amongst the lucky few who have got access to the beta ? How’s the experience been ? Do share your views in the comments section!

I've been a member of battle.net for years and have WC3: Reign of Chaos, The Frozen Throne, and Diablo II. I never got my key through battle.net tho, I actually got tired of waiting and came upon this site that had a couple hundred keys to give out. I'm not sure if they still have any keys available, but this was the site: http://gamebetakeys.com/starcraft2/

I think that they get new keys every few days so it's best to check back now and then.
